Product Description

"Ultraviolet light, which manifests itself in photographs as reduced clarity and the appearance of haze, is blocked by the UV 010. Ultraviolet light is invisible to the eye and is strong in mountainous and coastal areas with very clear air. This makes the colorless UV 010 an indispensable filter because it requires no exposure compensation. It is recommended as an ideal filter to be kept permanently on the lens to protect the front element. Filter factor is 1.0."

    Superb protection for your lens5
    I'll keep this one short and sweet. BUY IT!

    Made from Schott glass; Schott is a German company well known by the photographic community for manufacturing the glass components of Zeiss and Schneider Kreuznach lenses so the level of quality is well established.

    The actual filter comes in a very sturdy, hinged plastic box which is lined on the bottom with a foam-like substance designed to protect the housing for the glass and to minimise movement during transit, both of which it succeeds in doing very well.

    It's difficult to describe how different this filter feels compared to others I've had but believe me when I say that this has 'quality' written all over it; it feels weightier, more solid and better put together than anything else I've ever owned.

    OK, so this review ended up not being as short and sweet as intended but I'm sure that if you spend your hard earned pennies on this filter I'd be extremely surprised if you found anything of fault with it.

    A highly recommended piece of kit.

    Very high quality5
    I'm using this filter with a Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4.0-5.6 IS USM Lens. I use it with the canon lens hood as well.

    This is a great bit of glass filter in front of a very good lens. Would highly recommend it!
